History Through Architecture:

Students have requested this class to be offered again! Ms. Adrianne has curated this class based off of her love of travel, history, architecture, and cultures.

This class offers a captivating journey through time, delving into the rich tapestry of human history by examining the evolution of architectural styles, techniques, and cultural influences. This interdisciplinary course integrates elements of history, art, culture, and technology to provide students with a holistic understanding of the world's architectural heritage.

Throughout the course, students will embark on a chronological exploration, starting from ancient civilizations. By examining iconic structures, students will gain insight into the socio-political, economic, and religious factors that shaped architectural design and construction methods.
